"One ice vanilla latte, please." I said. I'm at the café near here at University. I need to get something to eat or drink before I go to my class. I haven't got any breakfast because I kinda running late. I stayed up all night just to finish my project and review for upcoming exam. College life sucks, but what can I do? I need this.
"Do you have coupon?" The crew asked. I look at her, well, she's beautiful. I'm not checking her out, it just hard not to notice her look.
To describe her feature, she has this big doe eyes, long blonde hair with bangs, cute botton nose and plump lips. Well, in short, she looks like a barbie.
"Uhmm, miss, do you have coupon?" She asked again. Well, I didn't know that I'm staring at her.
"No, I don't." I simply reply, trying not to show my embarrasment.
She took a coupon card then put a stamp on it. "You can start collecting them." She hand me the card. "Thank you." I simply replied.
"What name should I put on your cup?" She asked.
"Jennie." I said. She then start to put my name on my cup. "Just wait for 5 minutes, Jennie." She said while giving me her charming smile.
After 5 minutes, she give me my drink. "Hope to see you again." She said. I said thank you and walk towards the university. I'm about to throw the cup in the trash bin when I saw some writings.
'Hope to see your smile again, Jennie' -Lisa
As I read the message, it got me thinking, I didn't smile at her.
------
Time had passed, I'm here again at the café where Lisa work.
Did I tell you that we see each other very often? Well, now I told you.
We attend same university, we have the same schedule in literature. She approached me when we did a group discussion for our presentation.
I asked her why she's working. She said that she's saving up money for future. I asked why, she replied "there is someone that I like, I'm doing this for that person." She said that while looking directly at in my eyes.
"One-" I didn't complete what I'm supposed to say because Lisa cut me off. "Ice vanila latte for Ms. Jennie." She said it with a playful tone and a wink.
I smiled at her. Lisa has this personality that you will adore. She's a happy person. I can't recall time that she get mad or upset. She always look at the bright side. Quiet opposite of me.
It's not that I'm a pessimist or what. I still enjoy life and stuff, but sometimes, well not sometimes, most of the time, I think that in any moment, If I let my guard down and just be happy, I'll lose myself. Happiness and love is not my thing.
So, when Lisa came, she always making sure that I would feel those things.
As I get my drink, I bid my goodbye to her. I look at my cup, she always put message of quote just to brighten up my mood.
I wasn't expecting what she wrote this time.
I want to court you. I like you Jennie. - Lisa
-----
Since that day, Lisa started to court me. Even if I rejected her, she still pursue courting me. This what she said. "I'm going to court you wether you like it or not. I want to be part of life. I want to be the rainbow and sun that will brighten up your dark and rainy emotions and life. Just let me in Jennie, I promise I'll do everything to show you how beautiful life can be."
